Wrapping up an amazing week at @UChicago for the @NSF Summer Institute in Advanced Research Methods (#SIARM) for STEM. Excited to kick off this 3-year fellowship alongside @kmansell representing @TTUEducation and @CIRCLE_TTU!
🙌 SB 2253 is voted out of committee and would make historic investments in the preparation of high-quality teachers that every student deserves.
Great summary from @Commit2Dallas that incorporates research and raises the urgency needed to make some real impacts! #txlege#txed

Using Texas statewide longitudinal data, I find that only 23% of students who received special ed in HS accessed accommodations in CC, with positive effects on completion & transfer rates for students with LD & OHI, but mixed results for those with ASD & EBD.
🚨 New publication 🚨 out today in @CECMembership! I examine how accessing disability accommodations affects degree completion & vertical transfers for community college students with non-apparent disabilities. https://t.co/BKWF7Mf0GA

Our new pub in #ECRQ. What drives disparities in absenteeism between kindergarteners w/ vs. w/o disabilities? Our decomposition models show: (1) approaches to learning and (2) internalizing behaviors drives much of the disparity. @magottfried @ja__freeman
